Every time I peer into the bio of a smart person who I think has gone too far in obsessive preoccupation with the worst tendencies in progressive politics, he turns out to live in NYC or SF. You’re allowed to just live somewhere more normal! — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of people work at Amazon & Walmart but they pay above minimum wage! Fast food chains are structured as franchises and the low-paid workers mostly work for small franchise-owners not the central company. https://t.co/x5xYIfagHa — PolitiTweet.org

DC local politics is a *lot* more moderate than NYC/SF thanks to the much greater political influence of middle class African-Americans, Black churches & business owners, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias Right like the very normal city of Washington, DC
